A short handweaving folder by Maria Mundal describing rug and decorative-fabric techniques, written for inexperienced weavers. It gives brief verbal instructions for wattling/twining, soumak, Sehna (Persian), Ghiordes (Turkish) and Spanish knots, rya, floss, tufting (Canadian loop), kelim, aakled, rølakan and rag rugs. One page of line drawings shows the warp-thread paths of several of the knots and stitches. Includes notes on historical origins, Scandinavian use, yarns and finishing.
